The stranger within my gate,
he may be true or kind,
but he does no talk my talk,
I cannot feel his mind,
I see the face and the eyes and the mouth,
but not the soul behind

The men of my own stock,
they may do ill or well,
but they tell the lies I tell,
we do not need interpreters,
when we go to buy or sell

The stranger within my gate,
he may be evil or good,
but I cannot tell what powers control

What reasons sway his mood,
nor when the gods of his far-off land
may repossess his blood

The men of my own stock,
bitter bad they may be,
but, at least, they hear the thing I hear,
and see the thing I see

Whatever I thing of them and their likes,
they thinks the likes of me,
this was my father's belief,
and this is also mine,
let the corn be all of one sheaf,
and the grapes be all of one vine,
era our children's teeth are set on edge,
by bitter bread and wine

The stranger within my gate,
he may be evil or good,
but I cannot tell what powers control

What reasons sway his mood,
nor when the gods of his far-off land
may repossess his blood

The stranger within my gate (my gate, my gate),
The stranger within my gate (my gate, my gate),
The stranger within my gate (my gate, my gate),
The stranger within my gate (my gate, my gate)
